Check list
Whew, this has been a full day. Here were some of the things checked off my list: New project completed and delivered! Positive comments flowed from some of the exhibition committee members packing up the plankton show. No completed photos yet. I’ll take some once the show opens. A little time away from the pieceContinue reading “Check list”
Project #201
It’s actual name is the Brain Conversation #201. I find myself having lots of inner dialogs as I flesh out new concepts or work thru challenging projects. This particular piece has been in the works for several years. The invitation to participate in Corvallis Fall Festival’s Fine Arts Showcase during the month of September finallyContinue reading “Project #201”
Upcoming art interests
Finally, a little art news! There are two upcoming shows, back to back that I’ll be participating in at the Arts Center in Corvallis. First up is for the month of September. The piece is still in the works but stands a pretty good chance of getting completed before the drop-off date next week. PhotosContinue reading “Upcoming art interests”
Yarn
Last fall I ventured into Corvallis’s newest yarn shop “Stash” and discovered a wonderful selection of Oregon crafted fibers. Since then I’ve been slowly discovering the joy of working with yarn, even dragging skeins here and there to wind or start projects. Public crafting!!! Yikes!! The trip to Texas back in June helped start myContinue reading “Yarn”
She Protected Them
The She Project rolled into action Friday night. This happened to be perfect, since I’d spent the day outside working in the yard, enjoying all the sunshine and colors. Dave didn’t get home until around 8:30 and by that time it was finished. This year my phrase was “She Protected Them”. This is what IContinue reading “She Protected Them”

Now I can get back into the swing ofContinue reading “Finished Project”

On March 2, 2012, The Arts Center will be hosting their grand benefit called Chocolate Fantasy. Yes,with chocolate in the title, who wouldn’t want to attend? They have also roped in basketball coach Craig Robinson ( that’s Michelle Obama’s brother for those outside the area) who will be helping MC the event. Besides the culinaryContinue reading “Chocolate Fantasy Donation”
Rain, flooding & generally soggy days
Life in the Willamette valley has been a tad wet. Multiple fronts have moved in off the Pacific bringing inches of rain per day, high winds, flooding, downed trees & land slides. The freezing level yo-yo’d around from valley floor (200′) up to 8,000′. When I wrote last about not believing in snow for theContinue reading “Rain, flooding & generally soggy days”
Friday morning procrastination
As I started writing this post, the sun had just peaked over the mountains spreading a lovely pinky-orange light through the trees. Frost coats the grasses in the lower field. Ice lays thick over the surface of the iris leaf washing station. A chilly 23 F. Snow on Sunday? I’m not counting on it sinceContinue reading “Friday morning procrastination”
